Student answer (Band 5.0)

In numerous countries people can go to the supermarket where all home groceries available under one roof and buy food, vegetables for eating produced by all over the worll. In my opinion, this is extremely psoitive decelopment because it becomes convenient for everyone to get the different type of food of other contries around the world.

According to my perspective, this is huge achivement for any country which can import different kind of food and vegetables from other states in his home country for the convenience of individuals. This is a God ditribution, who blessed each country with different weather and seasons. For instance, the weather mostly in europe countries is cold and they import mosty vegetables and fruits from asian countries like mango, orange, dry fruits and many kinds of vegetables.

Furthermore, God blessed the asia with four different type of seasons like spring, winter, summer and autumn.The every different zone of asia has different weather. Such as Pakistan is blessed with all four weathers in one year, where the mostly farmers grow every type of food according to season. Sometime Pakistan also import food from different cities and countries and exhibit in supermarket where the citzens go and buy food for homes. Nevrtheless, they export also to other countries which has high demand on high rate.

consequently, this is a success to gather the food produced all over the world under one roof. And this is good development in any nation, where consumers can to a supermaket and buy food which they want.

Task Achievement / Task Response: Band 5.5

Your position is clear: you consider worldwide food availability a positive development, mainly because it gives consumers convenience and access to foods from other countries. The examples about European imports and Pakistan’s seasonal produce are relevant to the topic. However, the response only partly develops the task: it gives limited explanation of how this access benefits consumers beyond convenience, and the discussion of weather and seasons does not always connect clearly to the overall argument. The point that Pakistan exports food at a high rate is introduced but not explained as a benefit or drawback. To strengthen the response, develop two clear reasons and show how each supports your view, using specific examples and a concluding link to consumers.

Coherence and Cohesion: Band 5.0

The response has an identifiable introduction, supporting paragraphs and a conclusion, and the reader can follow the general positive position. You also use linking expressions such as “Furthermore,” “For instance” and “consequently.” However, progression between ideas is uneven: the discussion moves from imports in Europe to Asian seasons, then to Pakistan’s exports, without consistently explaining how each point advances the argument. Some connectors feel mechanical, and “According to my perspective” repeats the opinion already stated. Paragraphing could be more purposeful, with each body paragraph focused on one reason and its supporting example. Use clearer references and transitions to show the relationship between seasonal production, international trade and consumer choice.

Lexical Resource: Band 5.0

You use some topic-related vocabulary, including “import,” “export,” “seasons,” “farmers” and “demand,” which helps communicate the subject. However, the range is limited and several word choices or collocations are inaccurate or unclear, such as “God ditribution,” “exhibit in supermarket” and “high demand on high rate.” Spelling errors, including “worll,” “psoitive” and “citzens,” are also noticeable and can slow the reader. Aim for more precise phrases for international food trade and consumer benefits, and check spelling carefully. For example, describe products as being “available in supermarkets” rather than “exhibit,” and explain that exports may be sold at “higher prices” if that is your intended meaning.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy: Band 5.0

You attempt both simple and longer sentences, including examples introduced with “For instance” and “Such as,” but control is inconsistent. Errors in sentence structure and agreement appear frequently: “all home groceries available” lacks a finite verb, “the asia with four different type” has incorrect article and number, and “consumers can to a supermaket” uses an incorrect verb pattern. There are also problems with articles, plurals and punctuation, such as “the every different zone” and the missing space after “autumn.” These errors sometimes make relationships between ideas difficult to follow. Practise building accurate subject–verb sentences first, then add subordinate clauses with “because,” “which” or “although,” checking agreement and articles.
